A clear cold morning with high wind: we caught in a trap a large gray wolf, and last night obtained in the same way a لومڑی who had for some time infested the neighbourhood of the fort. Meriwether Lewis

A لومڑی is a بھیڑیا who sends flowers. Ruth Brown

A gentleman is simply a patient wolf. Lana Turner

A hungry بھیڑیا at all the herd will run, In hopes, through many, to make sure of one. William Congreve

All species capable of grasping this fact manage better in the struggle for existence than those which rely upon their own strength alone: the wolf, which hunts in a pack, has a greater chance of survival...

Gray wolves once existed throughout much of Asia. Currently, wolves are found in many Asian countries although range lines are not depicted in the map above. Main prey in this region generally consists of ungulate species, including livestock. Legal status, population numbers and trends vary country to country.

Wolves once existed throughout much of Europe. Conflicts with humans and fears originating from religious beliefs, myths and folklore influenced human attitudes towards wolves and, as a result, wolves have been persecuted for hundreds of years. Currently, wolves are found in many European countries, although range lines are not depicted in the map above. Main prey in this region generally consists of ungulate species, including livestock. Legal status, population numbers and trends vary country to country.

Wolves once roamed over much of what we now know as Mexico until extirmination efforts successfully removed the wolf. No reliable sighting of a wild Mexican بھیڑیا has been reported since the last five individuals were captured and placed in a captive breeding program in Arizona in 1980. Today, the only known wild Mexican wolves are found in the United States in limited areas of Arizona and New Mexico, where they were reintroduced.

Canada supports the سیکنڈ largest gray بھیڑیا population in the world, after Russia. بھیڑیا habitat is diverse in this large country where, historically, wolves ranged in most areas. Currently, wolves in Canada occupy approximately 90 percent of their historic range (range lines not depicted). The 10 percentage without wolves is primarily near the southern border, except near Lake Superior where wolves still live. See individual provinces.
